This is easy to setup. The cabling in the box was more than enough for the positions I wanted to fit the cables. The kit comes with an adaptor to power two cameras off one plug which is useful. The instructions in the box for the software could be better, but on screen prompts get you through what needs setting up and does work. The yale view app doesn't blank out the privacy areas that are setup on the system which is a bit disappointing. The app does allow you to view when away from home and you can set up alerts for motion detection.
